The pioneer...



This had to be uploaded.. I still cannot believe that it happened! An opportunity to interact with the one, who has created an "atypical" system in the "typical" world.. An opportunity to hear him, not from miles apart, but from a distance not more than two meters.. Sitting in the VIP seat, right across from where he was speaking..

Today, I had an opportunity I would cherish, an opportunity to hear Dr. Muhammad Yunus, the Nobel Peace Prize winner. But, he is much beyond that award, it his his life, that speaks of himself!

And yes, I got a copy of his book too, signed by him personally.. Second of my possessions, that would be really tough to give away.. The first being the book signed by His Holiness the Dalai Lama!

I will be back with lots about this morning.. Till then, adios..

As "Fate" has it, yes.. ;-)
Sitting right across him, listening to him for an hour, and then a time with him.. :)

Of course it was Dr. Yunus that was trying to get YOUR attention as we can clearly see from this photo :)
